We strive to make all aspects of using WordPress.com streamlined and intuitive, from following a great new blog to editing a post on the go. Today, we're happy to present the new action bar, which allows you to do all this (and more) no matter what device you're on.
Following and more
When you visit a site you're not yet following, look to the bottom-right corner of the screen and you'll see this:
Clicking on Follow will make it so new posts from that site will appear in the WordPress.com Reader. Becoming a new follower has never been easier, whether you or your visitors enjoy reading posts on a desktop computer, laptop, phone, or any other device.
Click on the three dots and you'll see more options. If you like the theme you're seeing, you can now get it for yourself. Feel like sharing a particularly moving post? Get the shortlink and spread the word.
Make changes to your own site
When you're on any page of a site you manage, you'll have the option to customize your site. If you're visiting one of your published posts or pages, you can also opt to edit the content you're currently viewing.
Clicking on Customize will take you to the Customizer, where you can tweak your site's appearance, change themes, modify theme settings, and more. Select Edit, and you can quickly make any changes you wish to your content from adding another image to fixing a typo.
Here, too, clicking on the three dots will expand the menu to reveal the same extra options, like getting a shortlink or managing the sites you follow.
Good to know...
The new action bar will follow you from your desktop to your tablet to your smartphone -- all of these options are available regardless of the screen size you're working with. We also know that some of you prefer as clean a slate as possible, so you can minimize the action bar at any time by clicking on the three dots and selecting Collapse this bar. (You can always change your mind and expand it later.)
We hope you enjoy the new action bar!
We love that you're passionate about WordPress.com iterations, and most importantly, that you share that passion with us. If you've got feedback, we'd be grateful if you'd take a moment to share it with us in our support forum.
